Cool and Quick Railway Robbers.

Fort WORTH, TEX, September 90
Two masked men with drawn revolvers
mounted the cab of the Texas & Pacific
east-bound express train tonight, as it
pulled out of Ben Brook, small station
twelve miles west of here. The en-
gineer was ordered to run the train a
few miles from Ben Brook. 1t was
stopped just over high trestle. Here two
other masked men boarded the train.
The fremen and engineer were then
placed under guard. A dozen shots
were then fired into the express Car and
the door was finally opened by Pacific
Express Messenger Maloney. One of
the robbers entered and cleared out the
safe and then went into the mail car,
Messenger Griffith offered no resistance.
Every registered letter in the car was
secured by the robbers. The work was
done in ten minutes and the engineer
was ordered to pull out. The train was
the through express from San
Francisco. The booty taken is
valued at $4,000. The train was
robbed on the same trestle last June.
Guards were in the passenger coaches,
but as they were over the trestle, no at

Harrington, NJ. P, had quite tilt
with this witness, calling him murderer,
etc.
Sergeant Rider deposed that he fred
three charges of ball from the window
OF the barracks. He declined to say
whether he murdered any one. He
simply did his duty, he said.

Witness replied warmly he was no
villain and asked the coroner's protec-
ton.
Harrington said witness had been
sent there to bully him and he was
hardly able to restrain himself from
kicking the witness then and there.
A spirited alteration ensued, the
spectators taking Harrington's side.
The inquiry finally had to be adjourned.
